Hello Mia Mae! Gorgeous hair accessories for girls.

February 28, 2018

When it comes to hair accessories for girls, we don’t look any further than Mia Mae. Surina is the talented and creative mama behind this cute, proudly South African kids accessory range. From delicately knitted bonnets and blankets to pretty headbands, hair clips and hair ties… Surina makes it all and you’re sure to love them as much as we do.

In 2017, after being retrenched, Surina became a mom for the 1st time. Like a lot of mompreneurs, the plan was to stay at home and be a full time mama to baby girl Li-mé. Surina loved her time with Li-mé, and although she cherished every moment, she also knew she needed something to keep her mind stimulated in a different way. Confronted with various emotions and struggling with the idea of a new 9-5, Surina couldn’t imagine leaving Li-mé – “I wanted her to be part of my journey.”

Being a typical girlmom, she was always on the look out for pretty, girly accessories for Li-mé and found it frustrating seeing all the “nicer things” only available overseas.

“So, one day the Lord gave me a bright idea. Maybe I should start my own thing.”

First research needed to be done… Surina started making a few products for Li-mé and focused on people’s reactions and comments when she was wearing them. The response was overwhelmingly positive and it was decided; let’s give this a go! She would start her own range of hair accessories for girls.

“Having your own business is fun but also super stressful. I’ve grown so much over the last year and love every moment of Mia Mae.”

Always drawing inspiration from Li-mé, Surina focuses on creating and hand making the prettiest bows in an array of beautiful fabrics. Working hard to ensure top quality and a comfortable fit too. Our little Ava has been wearing her Mia Mae headbands from birth, with no complaints or headaches and Eliana and Lia are never without a Mia Mae hair accessory.

Even I can’t resist a Mia Mae head wrap…

What started as a one woman show has grown into a trio of passionate mama makers working together in crafting adorable accessories for little girls to enjoy. We might not know what the future holds for Surina and her team but I can asure you, it’s going to be beautiful!

Today sees the launch of the Mia Mae online store at MiaMae.co.za. With 4 different styles and an endless amount of fabric options to choose from at affordable prices it’s definitely worth spoiling your little girl. Be sure to go and have a look at their other products too but I warn you, the swoon worthy pics of all the little Mia Mae fans are enough to get anyone broody.

Hello, my baby girl is now 7 weeks old! I had to wait 10 years for this little Missy. I have three gorgeous boys and now finally my princess. I am enjoying all the girly things and I just adore these headbands with the little bows! The head wraps are also great (for me 😜). Would love to win this hamper for my little Jocelyn! X

So pretty! I am in love with the sweetheart bows… the floral and lilac ones! My little girl will be turning one in April. I would love to style her in one of the bows. The head wrapping is also gorgeous. And looks very comfortable.

From a mommy of two gorgeous girls I am in awe of the beautiful creations you designed. Just sad that my eldest daughter couldn’t have worn some earlier as I searched high and low to find beautiful headbands to no avail. I will definitely be ordering some for the both of them to look gorgeous when going out. Love your floral bows and blue rose cotton bow, but in all honesty every single bow is stunning. Keep up the great work

Love these,they are all so beautiful.im a first time mommy to a lg with curly hair so we love to accessorize with all things girly and pretty😍our favorites would be the sweetheart bows,they are dainty but so pretty and can make any outfit pop❤️❤️❤️

Hello!! Definately love the leatherette knotted bow. I have 2 already that I ordered from Surina which I packed into my hospital bag to accessorize my little one for the trip home 🙂 Her stuff is the best. I want to buy everything off her catalogue xx

I have 2 gorgeous little girly girls, my oldest is 3 and absolutely loves dressing up and pretty things for her hair. I absolutely love the cotton bows they are gorgeous. It’s so hard to find nice hair accessories for the girls, absolutely love your bows!

Ooooooh! I just LOVE all of them?!!! The leather bow is awesome!
I have a little girl who wants to wear headbands 24/7…she was only a hour old when she had one of your bows on her head I think that is why she loves them that much?!😊 and after you stopped making them I never found any that was as cute…BUT i’m so happy to see these!!! My little Sia would lov these headbands❤️ 🤞🏼 fingers crossed x

OMG… in love with the hair accessories. I’m so glad they have a website. In need of some serious hair accessory’s for my lil princess. Her hair is so long and always all over the place (never beat). I love the sweetheart bows. Soft and comfortable but still so cute and gorgeous

Oh, these are all so pretty (and reasonably priced too)! I’m a sucker for spots, so the black polka dot cotton boots is my favourite. Holding thumbs! (P.S. Definitely liked and followed on Facebook and Instagram 😉)

My daughter has been wearing Mia Mae headbands since she was 5months old and we love them. Now at 18months she is finally starting to her some hair so we need to stock up on clips but the Leatherettes are by far our favourites!

Oh man! These are just so beautiful! I love bows for me and my little girl! If I have to choose, and this is a really tough decision, I would say the cotton bow is my favourite, especially the dusty rose one😍. Love love it!!

My little one just loves these bows ;not that she has a choice shes only 6 months old, but she doesn’t pull them off so I’m taking it a sign that they her favourite! We especially love the Sailor Bows. No outfit is ever complete without a little bow of some sorts!
